Rain and Kinneret Watch

by Dei'ah Vedibur Staff

Our weekly report of the rain and the level of the Kineret - 5784.

As of February 1 (22 Shevat) 313.9 millimeters of rain had fallen in the Jerusalem area during the current season (August 1 to date). This is 102% of the average rainfall for this period and 60% of the average rainfall for the entire season in the Jerusalem area which is 522 mm. It rained a lot this past week.

November was unusually wet this year. The main rain months are December, January and February, but there is still rain in March.

The current level of the Kinneret is -210.08 meters below sea level, which is 2.00 meters below the full red line of -208.8 meters. Relatively little water is taken out as the bulk of Israel's drinking water comes from desalination.
